Extra, Extra....Read All About It!

  • From all of us at Scout Motors, welcome to the Scout Community! We created this community to provide Scout vehicle owners, enthusiasts, and curiosity seekers with a place to engage in discussion, suggestions, stories, and connections. Supportive communities are sometimes hard to find, but we're determined to turn this into one.

    Additionally, Scout Motors wants to hear your feedback and speak directly to the rabid community of owners as unique as America. We'll use the Scout Community to deliver news and information on events and launch updates directly to the group. Although the start of production is anticipated in 2026, many new developments and milestones will occur in the interim. We plan to share them with you on this site and look for your feedback and suggestions.

    How will the Scout Community be run? Think of it this way: this place is your favorite local hangout. We want you to enjoy the atmosphere, talk to people who share similar interests, request and receive advice, and generally have an enjoyable time. The Scout Community should be a highlight of your day. We want you to tell stories, share photos, spread your knowledge, and tell us how Scout can deliver great products and experiences. Along the way, Scout Motors will share our journey to production with you.

    Scout is all about respect. We respect our heritage. We respect the land and outdoors. We respect each other. Every person should feel safe, included, and welcomed in the Scout Community. Being kind and courteous to the other forum members is non-negotiable. Friendly debates are welcomed and often produce great outcomes, but we don't want things to get too rowdy. Please take a moment to consider what you post, especially if you think it may insult others. We'll do our best to encourage friendly discourse and to keep the discussions flowing.

    So, welcome to the Scout Community! We encourage you to check back regularly as we plan to engage our members, share teasers, and participate in discussions. The world needs Scouts™. Let's get going.


    We are Scout Motors.
My Scout will be a "pavement princess" and I'm not ashamed of it.

I found this picture off reddit, of someone that just took delivery of their MachE.

Here's something i want Scout Motors to know to do for me at my delivery. Please don't have my traveler plugged in, personally i don't want to be greeted to my Scout being plugged in. Because from what I've seen working at dealerships, no gasoline car has a nozzle sticking out of it.

It’s hard facing the truth about yourself sometimes, but sadly mine will be too.
There’s no sadly about it. I am a proud Wrangler owner. I will be a proud Scout owner. I love my vehicles. So what we don’t off road. The Scout is what I want and my choice isn’t less than because I don’t off road. No more apologies people!! Advocate for what you what and be proud about it!

I love reading about/watching/keeping up with offroading stuff, its just not for me.

I just want to cart my two kids and two dogs around comfortably in a modern version of a car I've been obsessed with for 30 years, it's not a tall ask ;)
Wow-I’ve thought nearly the same thing so glad to hear someone say it-I have I kid, no dogs and kid is at college 🤣

Very fair point! Comes off looking like they forgot to do it the day before.
 
Any Car/Truck/SUV to me is a tool and a luxury. Use that Tool how everyone wants, but make an effort to get your scout on a off road course at least once. In its lifetime.
I’m planning to meet @OleScout to go drive the beach at Chinquoteak (keeps auto correcting) and see the ponies. He just doesn’t know I invited myself-SURPRISE!!!!

And please make sure it’s at 100% state of charge. Several people have reported their EVs being delivered well below 100%, which is equivalent to having less than a full tank of gas in an ICE when you drive off the lot.

I dont think less of anyone that will use their Scout as a Mall Crawler, but I will still poke fun.


I plan to immediately take mine to the local offroad park and see what its capable of, and just might be one of the first to damage theirs on a trail.

It goes both ways though. If I smash a rocker panel climbing over some rocks i fully expect people to call me stupid for breaking such an expensive vehicle thats brand new.

All part of the fun.
